The initial intent of this was to improve the performance of shared arena closure in cases where a lot of threads are accessing and closing shared arenas at the same time (see attached benchmark), but unfortunately even disabling deoptimization altogether does not have a great effect on that benchmark.

This is the baseline if I change `closing` to use a confined arena:


Benchmark                                        Mode  Cnt   Score    Error  Units
ConcurrentClose.sharedClose                      avgt   10   8.089 ±  0.006  us/op
ConcurrentClose.sharedClose:closing              avgt   10   0.001 ±  0.001  us/op
ConcurrentClose.sharedClose:memorySegmentAccess  avgt   10  20.046 ±  0.019  us/op
ConcurrentClose.sharedClose:otherAccess          avgt   10   4.220 ±  0.002  us/op
